Chapter 401

Chapter 401

Neil might have had steadied the cradle, but the massive jolt scared Brandon into a crying fit. My heart clenched at the sound, and I quickly handed Serena off to my mother to comfort Brandon.

The yard was a chaotic mess, but I had no patience for it. All I wanted was to soothe my frightened child.

Hiram, having realized his mistake, quickly hid behind Karina. Had Neil not been present, I was certain that Karina would have defended Hiram, using the excuse, “He’s just a child.”

But Neil was there and everyone had seen Hiram intentionally rock the cradle. So, without any hesitation, Karina pulled Hiram forward and demanded, “Hiram, apologize to Ms. Finch right now!”

“I… I just wanted to play with the baby. He’s so cute…” Hiram looked around nervously. His eyes lingered on Neil, hoping for some support.

“You can’t just rock his cradle like that! What if he had fallen?” My voice was sharp and anxious. The situation had threatened my child’s safety, and I couldn’t stay calm, even if Hiram had just wanted to play with my baby.

Ever since Neil and Karina had arrived, Serena and Brandon had been in one near miss after another. I wondered if it was Neil’s doing.

My mother was similarly upset. “Can’t you keep an eye on your son? If he hurts my precious grandchildren, you’ll have me to answer to!”

“Let’s go. Let’s go inside. There’s no point wasting our breath on them.”

With that, she headed back into the living room.
